Japanese Surrender Delegation and their Betty Bombers

Scanned by C. Jeff Dyrek

This is a fantastic story of the Japanese Surrender and a big part of Aviation History.

There was an interesting story about the Japanese surrender which involved the Betty Bombers. The surrender wasn't just the emperor waving a white flag and calling it quits. It wasn't just the signing of the surrender papers on the USS Missouri. There was a long story behind the Japanese surrender and a big part of aviation history. As a webmaster, I'm just going to tell it the way I remember reading about it so here it is, please forgive me for any mistakes.

More about the Betty Bomber from Noel Adair

Having seen the info on the Japanese peace envoy's Betty Bombers I can tell you that the identifying crosses on them were GREEN. On that day, I and thousands of other happy GIs were lined along both sides of the airstrip. There were two of the Bettys. Our living area (507th Fighter group) was built parallel to the westernmost fighter strip on Ie Shima, which was the one used that day. We had a short hike to a ringside look at history as it happened. JDK KEN
